OEM/ODM

What is OEM/ODM in Korean Cosmetics?

In the Korean beauty industry, OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) and ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) are common contract manufacturing models that allow brands to bring high-quality products to market without owning a factory.

OEM: You bring your own product idea or formulation, and a Korean manufacturer produces it under your brand. This is ideal if you already have a concept and just need a reliable production partner.

ODM: The manufacturer provides everything — from formulation and packaging design to full product development — which you can customize and brand as your own. This is perfect for brands that want to launch quickly with expert support.

Both models give you access to Korea’s cutting-edge cosmetic innovation, while we at K-Beauty Connect ensure the entire process is seamless — from development to delivery.
